Section 3 Installation and connection of the controller
The controller is designed to be incorporated into the front panel of a PFC-
cabinet. It requires a panel cutout of 92 x 92. The controller is inserted from
the front and it gets fitted into panel with help of self clicking & if required
swivel screw can be used.The controller should be installed by qualified
technicians and must be operated in accordance with the specified safety
regulations.
Mounting of the controller is featured with easy “Clip- in” mounting. Push the
meter in panel slot, it will click fit into panel with the four integral retention
clips on two sides of meter. If required, additional support is provided with
swivel screws as shown in Fig. 1
Before the controller is connected up, all leads and cables must be checked to
ensure that no current is flowing through them. Care should be taken to
ensure that the measuring voltage and current are in the correct phase
position. The connection should be set up as shown in Fig. 2. The specified
safety regulations must be observed.
The auxilliary supply voltage is 110 to 550 VAC / DC
The measuring voltage may lie in the range from 30-550 VAC and can be
connected as L-N or L-L. after voltage and current connections enter CT
primary and secondary.
Now as per site conditions Phase correction angle,voltage
type,Capacitor bank KVAr ,Number of capacitor banks parameters can
be set OR Auto initialisation can be carried out to detect above parameters.
Auto-initialisation function designed to works in most of practical load
conditions and system networks. Refer Auto initialisation notes for detail.
if any ambiguty found in system values during or after autoinitilisation then
settings for above can be done in basic settings and advanced system
settings.

 Auto init : Enables auto initilization function
selecting YES option starts auto detection process

Proper CT primary and secondary should be set before starting

auto init
AUTO INIT Auto initialization detects voltage connection type LN or LL ,
system correction angle between inputs , carries out test run to
detect capacitor KVAr and also detect number of connected
capacitors. if undercurrent fault is present during auto init then
auto init function gets aborted.
To successfully detect system type (LN,LL) voltage should be in
range of 180V.to 550V, if 220/230/240 VLN system then system
connection can be automatically detected ,if any other voltage ex.
110 VLL controller prompts to select connection type.
To successfully detect phase correction angle PF should be in
range of 0.600 inductive to 0.999 inductive.
auto init starts with switch off all capacitors and after discharge
time complete, phase correction angle and type is evaluated and
shown on LCD, then capacitor KVAr detection starts, detected
KVAr is displayed on LCD and these values can also be seen in
service mode menu.
system type (LN or LL) detected get overwritten to present value
whereas system angle stored in separate location (not
overwritten).
if any discrepancy found in system type ,correction user can
change to old values by appropriate settings in basic settings
menu.if any capacitor detected 0 KVAr then that output marked
as faulty and neglected in correction algorithm if any discrepancy
found in KVAr detected or number of banks then appropriate

This menu point allows the user to check the settings of the PFC controller.
After activation of the test run, PFC checks if any fault condition present then
message will be displayed as INPUT FAULT TESTRUN ABORTED
For fault condition banks are not switched ON.
PFC switches each stage on and off successively and calculates the output of
the capacitors connected (this procedure is done three times to eliminate
possible errors).
kvar of capacitor bank can be seen while test run in process.
Any discrepancies in bank parameters found are evaluated and displayed in
plain text.
The following errors can be displayed:

UNSTABLE LOAD
CHECK CAPACITOR POWER!!!
CHECK CAPACITOR COUNT ..... No capacitor detected on any of the output

Note: The results displayed are messages intended to help the user trace the
cause of the error. Final evaluation remains the responsibility of the user.
Under complicated (high load fluctuations) grid conditions, 100% error
recognition cannot be guaranteed.
